I listened to a clip of WFMU radio. Loren Bouchard and H. Jon Benjamin on landstanders site. http://www.wfmu.org/listen.ram?show=10987&archive=12764&starttime=01:36:40 or toonzone.net/homemovies (http://toonzone.net/homemovies)

Just listen a little in too it H. Jon Benjamin (Coach). sounds like a odd robot with a bad personality.:(

He sounds very annoying and yes he does it for the whole interview but do yourself a favor and listen to the whole thing because it is very funny.

When I first listened to it, I was like, "Get outta here!"...but it really did seem like he was serious. Is it true? If so...boy, he's an ass.

C'mon, greatest voice actor out there? Gimme a break, I can name 100 VA's that are better than you. Sure, you're hilarious as McGuirk, but hardly a god in the buisness...

I'm pretty sure he was being sarcastic. I noticed the people at Soup2Nuts have an Andy Kaufman-esque sense of humor when it comes to interviews and stuff (I.E. Brendon constantly interrupting a fan asking a question).

To hear H. Jon Benjamin real voice, see the SGC2C episode "King Dead".

Yeah, I don't even think he does a voice when he does McGuirk I think he just talks

I know, I really hope that was sarcasm, because yeah he's an ass.

Did anyone else notice that he said he was like the most important voice on Home Movies? My ass. Brendon has to be...with him screaming his lungs out in all the songs and such.

And him saying the VAs on Home Movies don't get along. I mean, I could see that, but it doesn't really seem like they don't get along.

Hmm. Oh well.

That interview was completely hilarious. The robot voice helped with one of the driest deliveries I've ever heard--I loved the self-centered, egocentric persona. If people thought Jon was a total jerk then he did a great job. And the completely non-complicit caller was great.
